Gutted to miss this game due to work again. I think Barrow will have to be clever with the kicking game and try to keep turning them around. Target Hurrell as much as possible, his defence is terrible.

Sounds like Barrow have played an expansive game today, cracking result. Well done all

I couldn’t make the game on Sunday due to work so won’t comment on it. I will say apart from the odd game where he keeps things simple and sometimes controls things Johnston has very little impact on games. He’s not a week in week out championship standard 7 imo, league 1 is his level. He needs to look at himself before waving his arms around and screaming at officials.

Well that was a disappointing performance, the try just before half time well and truly knocked the stuffing out of Barrow. They were playing catch up after that and were way too predictable with ball in hand. Good luck to Fev at Wembley next week.

Cresta summed it up perfectly in his post match interview, in the second half Barrow lost control giving away 7 tackle restarts with poor end of play decisions. The short dropouts were ridiculous, just inviting more pressure. But saying all that it was a great effort against a strong full time team on their own turf.

Ramon Silva on loan from Cas for 2 weeks at least.

Bulman and Ritson are better wingers, Bulman is not a loose forward. Shaw can not be put in just for his goal kicking. Sounds like the 4 injuries yesterday are Brown broken wrist/arm, Greenwood broken eye socket, Robson broken and dislocated finger and Pye failed HIA. Reinforcements are definitely needed in the pack.

Very tough game that against a very strong Doncaster. Way too many mistakes in the first half, kept hold of the ball and played simple rugby in the second half.

Hard to call this one, on paper they have a very strong squad but they do seem to get blown away every now and then. If Barrow keep it simple I’m confident of getting the result.

Cresta said in the marquee after the game yesterday that Pye is back for the rest of the season.

Scrappy win in ###### conditions. In control in first, got dragged into a niggly scrap in the second half. Can’t blame the officials for that. A wins a win.

Cracking result that, well done all

Sounds like Barrow had a good go at Oldham today, losing 38-24.

York have done the same as last season having a slow start. Hopefully turn them over before they come good.

Disappointing but can’t blame him for wanting to be back in Super League. There’s no mention of a fee being paid.
